Whanganui River Valley

Whanganui, Manawatu-Wanganui, New Zealand
After the rain, there will be the sunshine again - or something similar. Well after the rain of the day before, we were lucky to have another ride in beautiful weather from Tongariro National Park to Wanganui. Cycling here does not mean too many climbs to master...until you get to the end of the valley where a "big climb" is waiting for you. I could see the climb waiting while struggling on my bike to do a less steep climb at around 4-5km/h wondering how on earth I should be able to reach the top. But the miracle happened...I was better on the big climb than its little brother and could enjoy the view back from the top.
